Question
I was backing my car out with my door open, and my door got caught on something, which cause the door to bend outwards, and now it won't shut. What should i do?

Answer
You can try to bend it back. Take a small block of wood and place it between the door and the hinge pillar at the hinge. Close the door with a little pressure. Repeat on the other hinge little by little until the door is bent back enough top close. You may have to do this a few times, but be careful not to go too far.
